This is not about ethnicity… Sam Raimi-directed OZ: THE GREAT AND POWERFUL starring James Franco, Mila Kunis, Michelle Williams and Rachel Weisz, will open on March 8th, 2013 The story is about a circus wrangler (Franco) transported by balloon accident to the mysterious world of Oz where he gets mistaken for a know-it-all. Williams would play Glinda, the good witch, who’d team up with Franco’s character, snake oil salesman, to face off against Glinda’s evil sisters Theodora, played by Kunis and Evanora, played by Weis. Production starts this July in Michigan In the story, Weisz’s character, evil witch Evanora destroys China Girl’s family. Oz becomes a reluctant father to China Girl who is made of PORCELAIN.. hence ‘China’ Comingsoon said Joey’s characters, China Girl, appeared in the original L. Frank Baum novel when Dorothy enters “The Dainty China Country.”. Here’s excerpt..A little farther on Dorothy met a most beautiful dressed young princess, who stopped short as she saw the strangers and started to run away. Dorothy wanted to see more of the Princess, so she ran after her; but the china girl cried out, “Don’t chase me! don’t chase me! “- She had such a frightened voice that Dorothy stopped and said, “Why not?” “Because,” answered the princess, also stopping, a safe distance away, “if I run I may fall down and break myself.” “But couldn’t you be mended?” asked the girl. “Oh, yes; but one is never so pretty after being mended, you know,” replied the princess.
